being made towards modeling the varying background, e.g. using 2D Gaussian Processes. Hedges+ in prep Our ability to model Kepler’s background systematics is improving
to an unprecedented precision A new measurement apparatus was designed which uses small spots of light across a range of wavelengths. Vorobiev+ in prep This opens the door towards high-precision PSF-fitting photometry with Kepler.
Careful feature engineering allows a classifier to provide a complete and unbiased census of stars showing occultations by accretion columns. Hedges+ 2018
open software & data? - how to provide robust careers and funding opportunities to support scientists? - how to address the stress related to the fear of “getting scooped” in the era of openness.
